Thank you for letting me know Phil. I am hoping to buy privately so that it's cheaper than from dealers.

Especially when it comes to Mactone. Have heard anecdotal reports of reliability problems. Also I think that one at Definitive has been sitting around literally for years. I tried to get a demo of it around two years ago before buying the EAR 912.

Also - addressed to the op - it seems an odd way to pick a pre. AN AN-M3 is an entirely different beast to a Shindo for example (frankly I’m not the biggest fan of either, but for very different reasons) I think you might be advised to have a listen around first.
